Golden Hour Photo Shoots Epsom.
Golden Hour Photo Shoots have the most beautiful light!
Golden Hour (or Magic Hour) is a term used by photographers to describe a time of day when the light is at its most beautiful. It is a period of around an hour after the sun rises as well as the hour just before the sun sets.
Here is a photograph that has not been edited. It was simply a quick snap taken of my daughter as she played in the sand at Cheam Park. Look how beautiful that light is! You can certainly see how this time of day got its name.
So when exactly is Golden Hour?
This depends on the time of year and where you are in the world. But to give you a better idea, if you’re here in Epsom…
On 31 July Golden Hour Starts around 5:20am and 8pm
On 31st August Golden Hour Starts around 6am and 7pm
On 28th September Golden Hour starts around 7am and 6pm
On 25 October Golden Hour starts around 7:40am and 5pm
Note: the clocks change to mark the end of British Summer Time on 29 October
On 30 November Golden Hour starts around 7:40am and 3pm
On 16 December Golden Hour starts around 8am and 2:50pm
A great time for Portraits of your Little Ones
Autumn time is the perfect time for beautifully lit and gorgeous rich and colourful portraits.
Golden Hour is at a sociable time of the day in the autumn months (in the summer it can happen before 5am and no one wants to be up in time for that!)
The colours in autumn make for beautiful portraits with plenty of glorious reds, ambers and green tones all around.

A note on the number of images in your gallery
The number of edited images available in your gallery will entirely depend on how responsive your child is during the session. For a mini session, there are only 30 minutes to capture your little one and I will work as fast as I can to capture as wide a variety of images as possible. If your little one is not wanting to co-operate I may have to take more photographs of you as a family with fewer portraits of your child alone.
